Blocks move around when choosing Collapsed Topics

Hi!

We use Moodle 3.0.5 with Collapsed Topics installed and Essential as theme.

When ...

... using a moodle core course format

... having added extra blocks in a course 

... having dragged the blocks to where we want the on the sides of the course start page

... and the changes course format to CT, the added extra blocks on the course start page goes back to where they started.

It seem like the added blocks are using the default placement configuration that they get when they are being added. How come this?

This is not at problem when creating new courses and using CT from the start, but it's annoying when changing old course rooms, or copies of those, to CT course format.

Hi Peter,

Does the problem happen when you start with a CT course from scratch, move the blocks and then change to Topics?

Hi Gareth,

just tested that, and it's the same result: When switching from CT to Topics in a course thats originally CT, the added block jumps back to where they started when I added them.

As probably expected, the problem is the same when using Clean theme.

Indeed - same thing happens when changing from Topics format to Weekly format. I should have tested that too before I wrote here...
